It should be noted that in KDE 4 the Open With dialoge can be accessed via the KOpenWithDialog class. This does require linking against kdebase, though. I do not know of a universal KDE / Gnome / *box solution, but please do not make this a Gnome-only solution. Should I ask on kde-devel or other lists how to access the Open With dialogue of the active desktop?
